Eight years ago, I told NASDAQ that multifamily has one thing most asset classes don't:

Bipartisan support.

Republican or Democrat. Red state or blue state. Boom market or down cycle.

Housing gets backed. Tax incentives stay. Agency financing stays. Development programs stay.

The names on the buildings in Washington change every four years. The policy support for rental housing does not.

That’s not a political statement. It’s an observation about how this country treats one asset class differently from every other.

Fast forward to 2026: We’ve watched administrations flip, interest rates spike, and capital markets freeze.

Yet, the thesis holds up: ↳ The FHFA just expanded Fannie & Freddie’s multifamily loan caps to $176B. ↳ Congress passed major bipartisan supply-side legislation (the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act). ↳ Core tax levers like 1031s, depreciation, and LIHTC survived another cycle intact.

Most investors chase whatever sector the current administration favors. We pick the one both sides already agree on.

Still the easiest way to underwrite a 10-year hold.

Recorded in 2018.

Still true in 2026.

I sat down with NASDAQ eight years ago and laid out what Colony Hills was built to do.

Formed in 2008.

Small team by design.

Focused on one thing — multifamily.

That was the whole thesis.

Buy right. Manage tight. Stay in one lane.

Eight years later, almost nothing about that has changed.

The team is still small on purpose.

The focus is still multifamily only.

The discipline is still the same discipline that carried us through 2008 and everything after.

I was talking to an operator last week.

He told me his deals are “fine.”

Rents are holding.

Occupancy is steady.

DSCR is above 1.0.

I asked him one question.

“How much room do you have if something moves 5%?”

He went quiet.

Then he said, “Not much.”

That's the problem most operators can't see yet.

The helicopter will crash if you do something wrong.

It can fall out of the sky if the air is too hot or gets thin.

That is, if the weight is too heavy for the conditions and there is no margin left.

Same thing is happening in real estate right now.

The deals aren't failing.

The margin is.

And by the time you feel it in the numbers, the recovery window is already closed.

“Fine” is not a plan.

Margin is.

Right now is when smart operators are checking their “density altitude.”

In aviation, you don’t wait until the helicopter is struggling to figure out if the air is too thin.

You check it before you lift off.

Same thing with leverage.

The last few years, a lot of deals took off in cool, dense air.

Cheap debt.

Easy occupancy.

Tailwinds everywhere.

Today, the air is warmer and thinner.

Same property.

Same loan balance.

Very different performance envelope.

The operators who make it through this cycle aren’t the ones finding fancy new tricks.

They’re the ones quietly de-levering, resetting their torque limits, and giving themselves room to climb when conditions change.

If your business or portfolio only flies in perfect weather, this is the moment to fix it.

Not when you’re already losing lift.

Everyone is watching interest rates.

Nobody is watching torque.

In aviation, torque tells you how much work the engine is delivering to the propeller.

It is not just a power number.

It is a margin number.

Run too close to the redline, and you may still be flying — but you have very little room left.

Less climb.

Less recovery.

Less ability to handle the unexpected.

That is where many real estate operators are today.

Debt stacked.

Pref stacked.

Reserves thin.

NOI holding — but only if nothing moves.

The deals that survive the next 24 months may not be the ones with the boldest business plan.

They may be the ones with room left on the gauge.

Because in this market, margin is not a weakness.

Margin is the whole game.

Most investors only find out they’re over-leveraged when the air gets thin.

It is reasonable that a helicopter can hover just fine at 7,500 feet.

Add heat and thin air, and suddenly it’s performing like it’s at 10,000.

Nothing changed on the gauges.

Everything changed in the air.

That’s what happens when you stack debt and pref on a deal.

On paper, the numbers still “work.”

In reality, the margins differ with pref.

Then the market shifts.

Rates tick up.

Occupancy slips a little.

You pull harder on the collective (The rotor control) for revenue…and hit max torque instantly.

No room left.

No climb.

Just a slow slide toward the ground.

Deals don’t usually blow up overnight.

They can die when obstacles begin to appear in the air that has become thin.

Or, in terms of aviation, a change in density altitude.

My experience as a helicopter pilot changed how I look at every deal.

At 7,500 feet in Mammoth Lakes, my helicopter was flying like it was at 10,000.

The elevation hadn't changed.

The air had.

Thin air.

Warm temps.

The blades couldn't grab enough to lift.

It’s called density altitude.

I call it most real estate deals right now.

On paper, the asset looks the same.

The building hasn't moved.

The square footage hasn't shrunk.

But stack enough debt and preferred equity on top of it, and the operating environment “feels” 30% higher than it actually is.

Margins thin.

Lift disappears.

And the moment conditions shift — rates move, occupancy dips, expenses creep — you pull the collective for more revenue and hit 100% torque instantly.

No performance margin left.

The deal doesn't fail because the asset was bad.

It fails because there was no air left to fly in.

Most operators are flying at full torque right now and don't know it.

The ones still cruising left themselves room to climb.
